My research explores how people collaborate across disciplinary, cultural, and institutional boundaries to address complex challenges in healthcare, biotechnology, migration governance, and humanitarian practice. Using ethnography as my core method, I examine how knowledge is produced, how decisions are made, and how values shape everyday work, from interdisciplinary clinical teams in Dutch university hospitals to transnational migrant communities and global development initiatives​.
